That's Life

Like one of those firefliesOh it looks so good 'til it's in your handIt's like one of those memoriesWhere you can't let go but you just can't standIt's like one of those crazy dreamsAnd the permanent screens in the magazinesSaying why'd I loveAll it does is break your heart

One morning does it all add upOr am I just standing on the edge of crazyYou're getting close to giving upIn a big old way, knocks you down into theOther side every timeLove or lie, live or dieI, well I guess that's life

Like one of those peopleWith the beautiful eyes and the perfect faceIt's like one of those storiesWhere the hero dies in the very last raceLike one of those endless criesAnd the crazy lies of a hurting childWhy did love have to hurtIt broke my heart

One morning does it all add upOr am I just standing on the edge of crazyYou're getting close to giving upIn a big old way, knocks you down into theDarker side every timeLove or lie, live or dieI, well I guess that's life

I always liked to thinkThat I was always brave enoughTo try to master any push and shoveWell I guess I never qualified love

One morning does it all add upOr am I just standing on the edge of crazyYou're getting close to giving upIn a big old way, knocks you down into theOther side every timeLove or lie, live or dieI, well I guess that's life
